Matt McIrvin@apophis @futurebird Rich people are WAY RICHER than they were a few decades ago, in comparative terms. A smaller number of them control a much larger portion of the total economic product, and have tremendous power, and being in this position seems to be absolutely toxic to the human brain.
The situation is more like the late 19th century, the Gilded Age. And the rich people of that time were buck wild.
